Jaffé, Aniela (1903– )
Jungian psychologist who wrote on parapsychology. Jaffé
was born on February 20, 1903, in Berlin, Germany. After
World War II she became the secretary at the C. G. Jung Institute,
Zürich (1947–55), and then personal secretary to C. G.
Jung (1955–61). She later recorded and edited the reminiscences
of Jung, published as Memories, Dreams, Reflections
(1963). In addition to her various important papers on psychology,
she wrote widely on parapsychology, particularly on connections
between psi phenomena and the unconscious, and on
the psychological interpretation of paranormal phenomena.
